Synopsis
The House of Rahl would not die out, and the line of Confessors would not end: Richard and Kahlan are having twins, a boy and a girl. But their birth will also be their death sentence, for the magic that grows with them will draw those who are evil and wish to rampage unrestrained across the world. Only magic protects D'Hara from the Golden Goddess and her kind, the Glee, the magic of Richard Rahl and Kahlan Amnell and the magic that the Mother Confessor carries in her womb; and to take this world, the Goddess must ensure that the children are never born. The second episode of The Children of D'Hara, the serial novel that picks up immediately after the end of the Sword of Truth.
